Solution

Vollardian was engaged as the Project Manager for the entire transition, providing deep knowledge of every workstream, not just a simple project plan. Key solutions implemented over three months included:

• Project Governance: Developed a clear project plan with full visibility of tasks, due dates, and interdependencies. Ran weekly, and later daily, stand-ups to manage critical actions.

• Technology Transition: Provided research, advice, and demos on commerce platform capabilities (Shopify, ERP integration, and required apps like Loyalty Lion). Vollardian assisted with data cleaning and alignment to prepare for the Netsuite ERP setup and assisted with testing.

• Australian Operations Setup: Acted as HealthPost's Australian team. Performed onsite inspections and assisted in finding and configuring a new warehouse. Recruited the Australian Warehouse Manager and staff to establish the local team.

• Operational Support: Managed workstream responsibilities to facilitate site launches.
